Researchers identify a gene expression program in the living human brain that tracks with real-time neurotransmission, bridging the gap between genetics and electrical brain activity.

Researchers have identified a distinct and reproducible gene expression program associated with neurotransmission in the ...

Livestock breeders could soon have more tools to improve the health and quality of their animals, thanks to a recent study that sheds new light on regulatory elements in the sheep genome.

A new drug, FLAV-27, targets epigenetic changes in Alzheimer’s. In preclinical studies, the drug reduced levels of ...

Researchers have found statistically significant links between a gene tied to schizophrenia risk and poorer cognitive ...

Taner, M.D., Ph.D., who leads Mayo Clinic's Precision Medicine in Neurodegeneration Lab, studies complex genetic interactions in Alzheimer's disease.

Inside a diseased cell, the genes are in chaos. Some are receiving signals to overproduce a protein. Others are reducing ...

Much of the phenotypic variation that is observed within and between species is the result of differences in gene regulation: specifically when, where and how much the genes are expressed. Given the ...

Discover how CRISPR genome editing is revolutionizing medicine. Learn the science of Cas9, current clinical trials, and the future of gene editing.

What do your genes have to do with growing old? Quite a lot. But is it due to the actual DNA, or the way those genes are expressed? KPBS sci-tech reporter Thomas Fudge has more on new research that ...
